Yes when Orangeyes asked me this morning about my was Daughter in an E-mail about the Orange Softball team, he asked me how she was doing. It's hard to believe it's been actually 9 years ago not 8. I was on a training mission at Fort Lenardwood Kansas and I got woken up at 4am by the Duty telling me to call my wife on her cell phone. When I got a hold of her she was frantic and told me our 2 year old Daughter Brooke was in a comma and on life support. She was being Air lifted from Albany Ga to the Children's Hospital in Birmingham Alabama. I was stuck in the middle of now where trying to get to Birmingham as fast as I could. I finally able to rent a car and drive to St Louis. At the St Louis Airport I stopped at the USO and posted on this forum (or what ever version we were using in 2003). I asked to board for prayers and support of my Daughter. I believe their were like 500 messages of support for us. It was an amassing show of support for my family. Brooke was diagnosed with type one Diabetes. Their is no cure for type one Diabetes but it is treatable. Brooke no longer has to get 5 shots of insulin a day due to her insulin pump we purchased about two years ago. She is a great Daughter who lives with my ex in Prattville AL (home of GMac stalker Deano...LOL sorry Deano)
 
It's still is amassing to me how many people remember that day on this form and still ask me about it regularly.
